Le Yao's series of questions once again made me speechless. Although I once thought that Le Yao was the least proposition among the women I knew, after many years, I changed this view. She was very independent and even determined. Maybe this was a kind of growth, growing up in a period of time when I was not involved.

After silence, I finally said to her: "If you really don't plan to return to China, then live well in Singapore. If you have any financial burden, tell me, and you can still help me."

Le Yao's tone was a little joking: "Ye, Zhaoyang, are you Bao Xiaosan?"

"I can't afford you!"

"Then what motive are you?"

I thought about it and replied: "My help between friends."

"Haha, this statement is good, it's really good... I feel that I should accept your financial aid when I have the chance. After all, you are a quasi-successful person now, and I am a down-and-out artist who can't make it in the entertainment industry."

Le Yao’s sarcastic words made me feel a little disappointed. We seemed to be unable to get along like before. After a long time, he said to her: “I think: You should consider returning to the entertainment industry, of course….”

"What of course?"

"If you can handle your current life and feel that this is what you want, just pretend that I have never called you, and I will respect your choice!"

The depressedness in my words may have touched Le Yao a little. She finally said to me in a light tone: "I have tried to find a job here that can be done for a long time, but... I don't have any work skills and can't even use the most basic office software. I can't find a job that suits me, but I'm unwilling to do some jobs that need to be revealed in public. However, I still have some money to use. When I use up this money, I may return to China, but I really don't plan to go back to the entertainment industry. Even though I once longed to become a star-studded star, I really realized that I have the happier life because of these stars, but on the contrary, I have brought me all the burden..."

At this moment, I could feel Le Yao's fatigue and said to her: "Well, you are actually understood by many people and have the determination to pursue it..."

"What about you?"

"I have always lived like a gust of wind and had no shape, so just pass by."

"You are too negative energy. I really hope that one day you will be a person who has a positive guiding role in others, not like this now!"

I smiled and asked, "Is this your expectation for me?"

"For sure, you should try to change your current state. In fact, when we are alive, we will definitely be watched by many eyes. Some of these eyes are childish and inexperienced, so you should have a correct guiding role."

I finally laughed: "Haha... This is your occupational disease as a public figure. I am different from you. I must live alone. I have no eyes in my world. I can sway in my own world and die in my own world."

Le Yao seemed to regard the loneliness in my destiny as a kind of obsession, so she didn't find any words to respond to me for a long time. So I said in her silence: "I don't know if there will be many eyes peeking at me, but I have been growing. We have made an agreement that we will all be masters in life. Therefore, with this agreement as the premise, I will definitely grow into a big tree to shelter the wind and rain for the people around me."

"Do you still remember our agreement?"

“I’ve never forgotten.”

Le Yao finally smiled and said, "Zhaoyang, if one day I return to China penniless, will you support me?"

"It will definitely...but to put it another way, this is a kind of support similar to that between comrades."

"Any word, if you say that, I at least feel that no matter how bad my life is, there is still a person who relies on it. In fact, we are all lonely because those who peek at our eyes will never understand ourselves better than you! So we always live alone in our own world."

After the conversation with Le Yao, I took out a cigarette from the cigarette box on the cabinet again and lit it. I was thinking about it all, but there was one thing I could be sure of. Le Yao would return to China. Maybe it wasn't long before, maybe it would take some time. I hope her loneliness will be spent with her money. Because I have a intuition that she belongs to the entertainment industry, so her loneliness is destined to be illusory, while my loneliness is real. For example, this night with only cigarettes, I really saw those long-standing loneliness burning out from my fingertips.

......

The next day, I went to the company early in the morning. Today I arranged a lot of work for myself. Because my conversation with Le Yao last night made me realize that I had to change the state of stopping growth, because not growing would mean withering.

At about noon, I received a call from an unfamiliar number. After answering, the other party reported to his home. She said she was Micai's assistant and asked me if I had time in the afternoon. If so, I would go to Zhuomei once. Because the travel agency contract for our company only Micai has the authority to sign, and Micai's work arrangements are relatively tight, I hope I can go there in person and sign the contract face to face.

In some sense, Zhuomei is now Party A, and Party B is in my company. We have the obligation to accommodate Party A, so I agreed to this request, so we made an appointment to meet at 3:10 in the afternoon.

After lunch, I took another hour off. It was already 2:30 when I woke up. I washed my face and woke myself up a little, so I drove towards Zhuomei.

After arriving, I parked my car in the underground parking lot. When I got off the car, I happened to see Fangyuan's car. I stopped and waited for a while. He also parked the car and walked towards me with his briefcase.

He didn't have the style of a deputy general manager. He hugged my shoulders as before and asked, "Why are you here for Zhuomei?"

"Come and sign a contract."

"Is it our Zhuomei's travel agency contract?"

I nodded.

Fang Yuan said again: "We brothers finally met each other once, find a place to drink something and chat."

I looked at the time. It was more than 20 minutes before the agreed time with Mi Cai. I had to wait anyway, so I accepted Fang Yuan's proposal. Then the two of them found a miniature cafe on the second floor of Zhuomei, ordered some drinks, and then started chatting.

Fang Yuan asked me: "Have the company's operations been going well recently?"

"What's going on with the company that just opened? What about you, how are you doing recently?"
